With Thanksgiving tomorrow and pumpkin pies already in the oven, it’s time for me to say it again: I’m thankful for short sales. (I’m not talking turkey.) Of course, I’m not thankful for short sales in the same way that I am thankful to my wonderful family and the health and happiness of the ones I […]

I was recently involved in a very unpleasant situation. I hired a carpet and tile cleaning company to come into my home and clean things up a bit. Although we had never used this particular company before, they came recommended. They come in; they quote the price; they get started. The project takes longer then […]

Like wildfire, there were waves of rumors spread throughout 2011 about the pre-approved short sale. Is there some such a thing as a pre-approved short sale–a short sale where the bank […]
